    Ahahahahahahahah

    that was too ridiculous.
    I don't envy whoever has to count those.

  • Britt
    10 years ago

    I've already counted most of them... going to do another now.
    oi.

    I've never been so happy that a contest ended

    (no offense Saffie, I truly had my fun ... until the last two hours)

    x.x

    I wanna give a big hug to my club.

    and a big-slightly-smaller-one to the club :P

    ~Is dead~

    Hugs all around. We're all winners. I don't want to count.

  • Darren

    I have 15 poems on my account

    today I wrote 82 (ahem *coughs*) poems

    I am knackered

    well done all

    great battle

    I am also glad it is over

  • Baby Rainbow

    Now, that was entertainment haha!

    Thank you EVERYONE for making my week more enjoyable... it was pretty much hilarious!

    You guys really are all so insane, I would love to have EVERY MEMBER of this site compete inside an arcade at a variety of games! Lol.

    As for members online.... I am surprised the site has not fainted!!

    I will do a count, and confirm with Britt.... and hopefully we both end up with the same numbers.

    But feel free to do a count yourself!

    :)

  • -Choke-On-MY-Halo-

    Won't be making any poetry anytime soon that's for sure

  • nouriguess
    10 years ago

    Thank you, this was fun,
    Saffie. And FOPPERS, well, guys,
    congratulations.

    :D

  • silvershoes

    I tried to count, but gave up pretty quickly after getting up to 208 poems in TC #4 and there was still 1/3+ of the thread left. OH boy.

  • Narph
    10 years ago

    I just did a really rough rough rough count of TC.

    We wrote soooomewhere in the area of 1,222 poems

    And a little over 400 of those we pooped out today.

    Go team!!

    Hahaha, I'm afraid to even open the FOP threads. Thaaat's gonna be massive.

  • Britt
    10 years ago

    I want to vomit.

  • Michael D Nalley
    10 years ago

    You peeps must be pooped :)

  • Britt
    10 years ago

    I bet the first thread has semi good poetry, but the rest of the threads are crap I'm sure, lmao. It was so hard to care.

  • Baby Rainbow
    10 years ago

    Ok - here is my count. I am assuming it is right, because even with a few numbers out here or there, there is a large enough difference between them to still be placed in this order:

    M&Ms =14
    Free Spirits = 152
    LTFR = 177

    in 3rd place... Independents = 371

    2nd place: The Club = 834!

    FOP ... 1453!!!

    and this site has been dead why???? lol!!

    So congratulations to every single person who took part, I hope you enjoyed it and managed to have a laugh through all of the stress and competiveness!!

    PLEASE CAN FOP DECIDE ON 3 POEMS THEY THINKN ARE BEST, AND SELECT ONE MEMBER TO PM ME WITH THEM, IF I AGREE THEY ARE WORTHY, I WILL NOMINATE THEM.

    IF THE CLUB DO THE SAME, BUT WITH 2 POEMS.

    AND INDEPENDENTS : GIVE ME ONE POEM.

    The above suggestion is only optional for those who want to take part in it. IF you don't want to decide on the best, then miss it out and the prize will just be pride :)

  • Baby Rainbow
    10 years ago

    P.s... I think I might have possibly gone off of poetry........ and counting ;)

  • Baby Rainbow
    10 years ago

    OK - so ignore my number count lol... it doesn't match up....

    Anyone else feel like counting poems??

    Or do we agree with the order of the winners?

  • Nicko
    10 years ago

    Hi Sunshine

    Wow great contest,, but can you add up out clubs poems again we had way more than 800 odd more like 1200 plus

    Cheerz

    TC -
    Thread 1 (238 posts) --- #235 poems
    Thread 2 (262 posts) --- #260 poems
    Thread 3 (308 posts) --- #306 poems
    Thread 4 (A zillion posts ) --- #306 poems
    Thread 5 - 32 poem

    TOTAL SO FAR: 1139

    FOP -
    Thread 1 (261 posts) --- #257 poems
    Thread 2 (245 posts) --- #242 poems
    Thread 3 (298 posts) --- #296 poems
    Thread 4 A million posts ) ---- #228 poems
    Thread 5 a million posts ---- #272 posts

    TOTAL: 1295

    That was my count as I went through, but as I told FOP, give or take 50 because it's really, really hard to count these all up again.

  • Britt
    10 years ago

    There were a small amount of poems (5 or less each) excluded from TC/FOP both because of two members posting the same prompts and it didn't get edited (especially there at the end, when it got purely insane).

  • Baby Rainbow
    10 years ago

    Sorry everyone - my numbers were well off, and I don't know what happened with The Clubs counting, clearly, I missed out something!!

    I am okay to agree to Britt's count, if everyone else is okay with that?

    Winning teams are still the same order.

    Any objections?

    PS... thank you Britt, guess who will now be employed as the future calculator of P&Q Lol

  • Britt
    10 years ago

    NO. I'm never counting anything ever again. That was so hard.

  • Nicko
    10 years ago

    Would have to go back and add them again, but by Narphs count we were over 1200 but FOP were about 60 in front

  • Britt
    10 years ago

    Yes, someone please! Go count them all. I know I'm not 100% on, but I just can't count all of this again lol

  • Narph
    10 years ago

    I'm still pretty sure FOP beat us.
    I take Colm's poem about my sneakiness for a personal win though... sooo do what you will.

    Britt my count mostly matches yours.

    I had FOP at:
    Thread 1: 258
    Thread 2: 242
    Thread 3: 297
    Thread 4: 227
    Thread 5: 284

    And TC at:
    Thread 1: 235
    Thread 2: 259
    Thread 3: 306
    Thread 4: 391
    Thread 5: 31

    but looking at your count of TC Thread 4.... It's totally possible I miscounted that one. Shaky train plus shaky wifi will do that to a person. ;)

  • Britt
    10 years ago

    It's all those damn multiples of 8 in one post thats SO hard to count. If you lot would've just done one round of 8 per post, it was much easier to count, haha.

  • Baby Rainbow
    10 years ago

    There is always option 2 ....

    Both teams pick 3 poems each, and let it go to the public vote for which 3 poems are the best quality?

    Not sure how voting would work though.

    I am not counting again tonight, but I might attempt to recount tomorrow... or in my case in the UK, later on today! :(

  • Saerelune
    10 years ago

    Fop is actually quite easy to count ( until the last day ) since we've been numbering our rounds. :)

    day 1:
    16 rounds + 1poem

    day 2:
    30 r 2 p

    day 3:
    29 r

    day 4:
    30 r 3 p

    day 5:
    56 r

    which makes 161 rounds and 6 poems total ... Which makes 1294 total

    tc will take some longer as I'm on my phone lmao

  • Narph
    10 years ago

    Counted our 4th thread again... this time I'm coming in around 360/370? Numbers aren't my thing guys.

  • Baby Rainbow
    10 years ago

    Lmao... maybe I should have left the bribing prizes for the people who have to count the poems!!

    Next Challenge.... maximum of 5 poems per day! Ha!

  • Narph
    10 years ago

    Aside from nominating our clubs poems... can we make a thread to post the really funny/weird/ridiculous/or especially eye-catching ones we come across as we're reading?
    It would be nice to have a chance to read through everybody's, but I don't think I can handle reading some 3000 poems.

  • Saerelune
    10 years ago

    I'm all in for narphs idea!

    and give me a min - counting tc now

  • Narph
    10 years ago

    Haha, I'm impatient.
    I'm gonna go ahead and make a thread now.

  • Britt
    10 years ago

    Narph that sounds so fun! Seriously, I don't care about nominations - the poems back and forth to each other were hilarious.

    It very well could be 360 and I transposed it. We'll wait for Cynnie and see what she gets.

  • Baby Rainbow
    10 years ago

    Made a thread for you Narph. Go ahead and start posting what stood out to you!!

    Edit: oh poop.. sorry Narph, I had made one when you first suggested it.

    If there is a double post, I will ask mods to delete or lock mine.
